The former Arsenal and Everton striker believes the club have handled the 29-year-old appallingly, as he is set to leave Old Trafford this summer on a free transfer.
Pogba’s departure looks inevitable as he went off injured early in the Red Devils’ 4-0 defeat to Liverpool on Tuesday. This was just days after being booed off the pitch by his own fans against Norwich.
Sky Sports reports that the World Cup winner was ‘hurt’ by the reaction at Old Trafford. Campbell believes the situation is indicative of how the club has been run over the past few years. He told Football Insider:
Has Pogba been a disappointment at Manchester United?
Having left Old Trafford in 2012 to join Juventus, Pogba returned to the Red Devils four years later for a then-world-record fee of £94 million, as per Transfermarkt.
Pogba is still United’s most expensive signing of all time. He has since played 226 games for the three-time European champions, scoring 39 goals.
The Frenchman flew out of the traps at the start of the current campaign as he provided four assists in the opening day victory over rivals Leeds United. However, he has struggled to live up to those heights, scoring just once and creating five more assists in his 27 games this season.
The imposing midfielder has only started 48% of United’s top-flight games during the campaign. Sky Sports have reported that European superclubs Real Madrid and Juventus are interested in signing Pogba on a free transfer once the player’s contract expires at Old Trafford in June.
